Bezos & Sanchez plan $500M yacht wedding in Italy

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez may be getting married in Italy aboard the Amazon founder’s $500 million mega-yacht. According to reports, the couple is planning a lavish ceremony on Koru, the world’s largest sailing yacht, which measures 417 feet.

Whispers of the wedding at a holiday party

Over the holidays, whispers of the wedding surfaced at a dinner party hosted by the couple. Women from the group were reportedly overheard chatting in the bathroom about the location of the much-anticipated event. NewsNation’s Paula Froelich revealed that an unnamed source hinted at a spring or summer wedding. “It will involve the boat,” the source added.

The yacht, Koru, is a masterpiece worth over $500 million, as reported by Bloomberg. The vessel boasts luxurious features, including a wooden sculpture of Lauren Sanchez, 55, prominently displayed on its prow. It’s the perfect backdrop for a high-profile celebration.

The exclusive holiday gathering took place at the Matsuhisa sushi restaurant in Aspen, Colorado. Among the notable guests were Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, actor Kevin Costner, Australian billionaire James Packer, and Academy Award-winning producer Brian Grazer with his wife, Veronica Smiley.

A high-profile love story

Jeff Bezos, 60, is the world’s second-richest man, following Elon Musk. He and Sanchez got engaged in May 2023, marking a new chapter in their high-profile romance.
